Wow is right. That is quick. You must have got up at 3 am to start. You will always have employment skills as a motorcycle mechanic!

Oh I got it done but paying for it today. Now I'm laid up in bed because my backs out. I can't even get out and enjoy the work I've done.
Hopefully I'll be better tomorrow and take her to work.

As a member of the bad back club, I understand. That is usually how I end up, which is why my projects can take a long time.

Been there with that few a times, amazing the pain that can be generated and how that can lay you up. Lucky for me not frequent. I did spend the day yesterday up and down working on a Hellcat. In the middle of the night, I got a huge cramp in the back of my thigh.

Back is much better this morning so i took the bike to work. So far i'm impressed with the extra umph! she got. I'll get the video up sometime before the end of the day. I got just over 2 hours of video i need to edit. It may end up being a long video because i don't want to cut too much detail out of it. I rather have everything covered and have the viewer skip through it rather than remove parts that some will want to watch.

Where did you get the hotcam from? I can’t find one or don’t know what to search for.

I found them on ebay. I got mine for $147. Search Hot Cams 1059-1. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...0&_odkw=1059-1

I bet that exhaust note perked up quite a bit too. I sure wish my flywheel puller would get here so I could install my Hawk's cam.

How did your jetting end up?

[JerryHawk250]

Video uploaded. Hope it came out okay. Was kind of in a rush to get it out and it's been crazy here at work with all the jobs that were put on hold are starting up again. I was able to get ver 2 hours of video down to about 30 minutes.
Enjoy!

Yes it did. Nice pop when you hit the start button but doesn't seem to have put any extra load on the starter.
I have a 120 main in it right now. I didn't install the AFR gauge yet. I ran out of wire for my mig and was in too much pain Sunday to do anything. That will be next so i can fine tune.

That lack of extra load is likely due to the dynamic compression not being much diffeeent thanks to the cam.

Great video! Love that cam sound, da dat da da dat.

Awesome video Jerry! Thanks a lot for taking the time to make it! I can’t wait to try these mods as well.

Well on my way to work this morning i caught the last red light on the last stretch before the office. I couldn't resist. I dumped the clutch and revved her out through the gears. I hit 60 mph in third a whole lot quicker than she ever did before i had to turn off. I love it. I can't wait to get her out on the interstate and see how it does at highway speeds.

Please video. It is nice to see the bike in perspective following all your hard work
